The wedding of Marina Shoihet's uncle Grigoriy Reznik

By A Mystery Man Writer

This picture was taken at the wedding of my mother's brother Grigoriy Reznik in 1927 in Gaisin. Upper row: Grigoriy Reznik and his fiancee Hanna. Middle row from left to right: my father, mother, great grandmother Rieva Scherbo, and grandfather Moisey Reznik. Beside my father, Rosa. Lying: Boris and Emil, my mother's brothers. Maria Scherbo, my grandmother on my mother's side, was born in 1881. I don't know where exactly she was born but at the time when she met my grandfather their family was living in the town of Dashev. Avrum, her father, my great-grandfather, was a well-to-do merchant.
